Hillary's last paid speech - For those who haven't seen any of them (Video)





The first part is her remarks, followed by a Q&A session with the moderator. She covers quite a bit of ground in the Q&A.

And why is she afraid of a debate in NY?

Doesn't H seem a bit misogynist?

No one is afraid of Bernie.
It's said she would prefer to debate in PA. You have something against PA? She does very well after debates, so I am sure wherever it's held, it will work out just fine.

She's afraid of debates. And she is hiding facts from the American people, hoping she can fool us again. Every time after she gets dragged kicking and screaming into a debate her numbers go down. I hate the fact she's hiding from us, don't you think?

6. The American Camp Association Is Hardly Goldman Sachs.....

I'm not worried about campers. I'm worried about Wall St and the Bankster's. I don't think Hillary has mentioned camping on the campaign trail. She does talk about Wall St though and she told us that she told them to "cut it out". I just want to make sure that she isn't telling us one thing and telling Goldman and the Bankster's something else. That's my way of doing due diligence when selecting a candidate that I will vote for.

8. It is one of her paid speeches. Watch it, don't watch it.

I offer it up as one of the speeches she gave.

And I have no doubt she has close enough ties with some of the financial industry exes that she could make a phone call and get results. Not only were she and Sen Schumer instrumental in helping these companies rebuild after 911, but there must have been strong ties forged during that horrible period. Our financial industry took a huge hit on 911. Morgan Stanley alone, had over 15 floors of offices that went down in Tower Two. Looking at the occupant lists for both towers shows quite a few other companies in the financial sector in both buildings. I have only seen her allude to 911 once as the reason for some of her strong support from these industries, but it makes perfect sense to me that not only the help of their Senator(s), but her compassion for the incredible personal loss of friends and colleagues would be a factor in her ability to pick up a phone and actually get a response.

9. A speech where her contract didn't demand no video and no public transcripts?

Who cares?

It's what she says in private, and demands sole ownership of the transcripts, that matter.

I know she is careful because the GOP parses every word that comes out of her mouth looking for something to spin, but I have never seen a rider posted.

Appreciate the link!
